"Elder sister, they're so cute."

Li Rui smiled at Li Chen's words.

"Father gave them to Rui. Chenchen do you want to touch them?"

The little boy nodded his head vigorously eager to touch the rabbit's soft fur.

Just as Li Rui was about to hand the rabbit to Li Chen, she heard Li Na asking her

"Elder sister didn't go to the Imperial Palace today?"

"Princess is unwell."

That's what her father had told him to say if anyone asked her.

"Young Miss, we should leave now. It's lunchtime."

Li Zhan immediately said when she saw that Li Rui was again thinking about the Princess.
